A propos de cet article

Two parts, jointly issued, octavo (5 3/4 x 3 3/4"), each with separate register, pagination, and title. Collation: [pi]1, A-G8; [par.]7 (= 64 leaves). [4], 107, [1, blank]; [2], 12 pp; engraved frontisportrait. Nineteenth-century 3/4 olive morocco over marbled paper covered boards (lightly sunned), with gold lettering to spine. Raised bands. A touch of dust soiling at verso final leaf, else a fine copy, attractively bound, complete with engraved portrait. Later edition of a very popular work. The prose "additions" noted in the title make their first appearance in the 1651 edition: "The Character of a London-Diurnall;" "The Character of a Country-Committee-Man;" "Letters." Per ESTC, the following pieces which are to appear after the second part are lacking in our copy: "Cleaveland's Petition to His Highnesse the Lord Protector" and a letter "To the Earle of Westmoreland." The English satirist, elegist, and poet, John Cleveland (1613-1658) is recognized as one of the most popular satirists and poets of the 17th century. He was respected as a lyrical genius and a valuable asset to the Royalist party during the English civil wars. His work has provided a detailed examination of the history and politics of the mid-1600s through his caustic satire, somewhat biased by his allegiance to the king. Cleveland is also acknowledged as one of the last metaphysical poets, often utilizing the technique of extended metaphor. "Following the popularity of The Character of a London-Diurnall (ESTC notes four variants of the 1645 edition), Cleveland published The Character of a London-Diurnall: with Several Select Poems (1647). This was the first time that many of the poems had been published, and it shows how Cleveland's political satires helped to secure his place in popular taste. Eight different variants of this edition exist from 1647. In the same year another volume of mixed prose and poetry was published, The Character of a Moderate Intelligencer with Some Select Poems. Cleveland's works proved tremendously successful. Poems by J. C. with Additions, first published in 1651, was reprinted in 1653, 1654, 1656, 1657, 1659, 1661, 1662, 1665, and 1669" (ODNB). Provenance: At the front pastedown appears the armorial bookplate of Henry William Poor (1844-1915), a prominent stockbroker, investor, patron of the arts and book collector; ink entry of Leland N. Carlson at front endleaf. A. D. Cousins, "John Cleveland" [in:] ODNB; ESTC R29612; Wing C4692.…
